Nice Pitch & Putt 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 8, 2014 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

This is a great course for practicing approach and specific shots. The course is short, the holes are easy, and easy to navigate. Teach your kids to throw here and they'll feel like pros out of the gate.

Cons:

This is NOT a course for anything more than an approach. The longest hole (1) is listed as 225', but that sure seems optimistic to me - A Roc lands at the basket without moving your feet on the throw - the rest are shorter. Leave the drivers and fairway drivers in the car. Pull one of these out and you'll be looking for it in properties that aren't even adjacent to this park. It's small.

Other Thoughts:

I was out there alone yesterday morning, and played the course 5 times in 90 minutes. For the first 4 times through, I used a single Roc only - could have left the rest of the bag in the car.
holes 1 and 7 are a shared open fairway, 2 and 3 are straight with a few nicely placed trees so you have to throw straight (or light hyzer 3). 4 and 5 you are shooting for aces - they are really just extra long putts from the tee. 6 is a little neat - very short, but a tree laying over means it has to be a big hyzer, a tomahawk or thumber. Hole 8 tee is at the bottom of a small hill you have to go over before crossing some grass to the basket - actually a little frustrating (fun frustrating) for a short hole. And 9 is straight with a right turn at the end.
All things (and land constraints) considered
This is really a neat P&P course.
If nobody is there and you want some good approach practice, 1 and 7 share an grassy fairway going in opposite directions - throw 10 discs, finish 10 putts and come back the other way.

Pros:

This course is the great equalizer as all it is is a putting course. This course will really improve your short game, however. Even the "long" holes are easy to birdie.

Cons:

This course just leaves you hungry for heading to a course where you can really let the disc fly. Some of the fairways run across other holes; so keep your eyes open!

Other Thoughts:

For me, it's definitely worth stopping here on my way to or from Lake Stevens. It's a warm-up course that will fine tune your putting game. Shooting here first will definitely make you play better at the next course. If you play it on your way home, it's a great cool down course.

Walt Disneys' It's A Small World

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Apr 26, 2008 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

This would be a great course for you ........... if you were 2'8" tall like Mini Me. It's like a minature disc golf course. It's too small to be called a pitch and putt but probably a little too big to be called a disc golf putt putt course. They should install those little pink boats like the Disneyland ride "It's A Small World" and pipe in that terribly annoying song that plays over and over again. Make you throw from the boats while singing. That might make it more challenging. On the plus side, the park is lovely. The tee markers are vandal proof and are great as long as they don't change any holes. It would be the perfect course to teach your seven year old to play on. And did I mention, I thouroughly enjoyed playing it.

Cons:

Well, uhh, the baskets are kinda close. I didn't get any aces. Hit the basket once and the chains once. I suck!

Other Thoughts:

There's a Burger King about a block way and the smell of those flame broiled Whoppers (Registered Trademark) just kind of wafts on over to the course. Hard to resist! If I lived in Snohomish and played this course all the time, my arm would probably atrophy away to nothing and I would look like a Tyrannosauros rex BUT I would have more career aces than Ken (Freaking World Champion) Climo. Another rating that I've been thinking about for a while. While it's true there isn't much course here, I really enjoyed playing it and would go back. I'm upping the rating by a half point.

Thinking about this course recently and I've decided to raise the rating by another point. It's such a perfect course for youth, rookies and the elderly.
